People convicted under the poisonous-substance and narcotics laws were excluded from a collective pardon that fully remitted eligible prison terms of eight months or less. The decree marked the Islamic New Year and was immediately enforceable. Its drug exclusion cited the French 1970 law, showing the older legislation still used as a reference after independence.[1]
